Dear lord. Your love for us, so deep, so great, is simply appalling. Thank you for your nail-pierced hands. For this you’re above all. Above everything single thing, authority and wonder. You were crucified, on the cross, with all scorn and shame upon you. The burdens, like chains, are all firmly etched in you. Excruciating experiences you had to bear. You are of a rose, of great beauty. Yet you were trampled beyond recognition, petals and stalk disintegrated, not a pittance of fragrance. You are the Son of God. The One, the Messiah. Yet, all for love, you took it all upon yourself on to the Calvary. The darling of Heaven, crucified. Worthy is the Lamb. I want to be the one who stands firm, remaining in you till the very end. Not the one who deserts you in times of despair. Put my heart right Lord.
Your death and resurrection, all that Easter is about. Your love and grace, all that the bible depicts. All about you giving your very all, for us.
